AWARDED 90/100 POINTS & 4.5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

"Bright, lifted an plush red fruited bouquet with scents and flavours of dark cherry and plum with a layer of natural fruit spice and mineral earth suggesting dry clay. There’s a youthful tautness and squeeze as the fruit tannins and acid line set the foundation for fruit. Moderate alcohol, dry, fruity, balanced and well made" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier

AWARDED 93/100 POINTS & 5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2023

"Sweetly ripe and inviting, the wine shows dark plum, mulberry, thyme and toasted nut aromas with a hint of spicy overtone. It's equally attractive in the mouth delivering excellent fruit weight and persistency. Plump and flavoursome with a lingering velvety finish. At its best: now to 2028" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2023

A vibrant and juicy, unoaked red wine, showing great purity and the typical of high-altitude Tempranillo, with expressive and well-defined aromas of red berries, rosemary and a touch of liquorice. Bright ruby red colour.

From organically farmed, estate owned vineyards in Uclés, Castille, Spain, this is a vibrant and juicy, red wine with herbal, rosemary and liquorice notes with supple tannins. Youthful and un-oaked, it is showing great purity and fruit expression. This Tempranillo will take you straight to the Spanish countryside, complete with views of vineyards, olive groves and ruined castles and of course, like many Spanish wines, it offers incredible value. Organic & Vegan.

This is an excellent example of Tempranillo-Syrah from old Spanish dry-farmed Organic vineyards. Deep purple with a ruby rim, displaying aromas of red fruit and blackberries with slight spicy notes of freshly ground pepper. Medium bodied and juicy on palate, yet with fine tannins and a refreshing finish. Organic.

"Savoury syrah with roasted chestnut, charcuterie, cassis, Bovril, violet and dried herb flavours. Medium-bodied red that is vinous rather than fruity. Accessible wine that cleverly balances alcohol sweetness against ripe tannins and mellow acidity" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, The Real Review, Apr 2023

"Offering excellent fruit purity with elegant complexity, the wine shows dark plum, pomegranate, floral and subtle spice aromas, followed by a silky-smooth palate displaying juicy fruit intensity combined with supple texture, finishing long and delectable. At its best: now to 2027" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Apr 2023

A flavoursome, silky, southern Spanish Syrah that offers ridiculous value for the modest price. Made by the Navarro Lopez winery from vineyards in the Valdepeñas region in the southern part of central Spain. Valdepeñas literally means “Valley of the rocks” and along with its stony clay-lime soils, it’s an area with an extreme climate of cold winters and hot, dry summers, perfect for producing fruit that thrives with flavour, intensity and complexity!

"This is immediately appealing on the nose with dark cherry, toasted spice, smoked meat and almond notes, leading to an elegantly flavoursome palate that's juicy and finely textured. Beautifully rounded and supple with fine-grained tannins, finishing lingering and attractively dry. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2023

"Aromas and flavours of dark berries and spicy red meats, button mushrooms and plums. Fleshy and fruity, taut and dry, a classic dry red wine from the region with a lighter tickle of tannins, medium acidity, and a core of red fruits. Well made and ready to drink from day of purchase through 2027+" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Feb 2023
